- Tasting Notes
Delicate white floral aromas, balanced with ripe tropical and yellow stonefruits. There is a harmonious synergy between fruit sweetness and gently integrated oak with drive and perfumed vanilla on the palate’s periphery. Time and stirring on lees has given this wine a wonderful saline purity on the finish.
